    It still works, all you are doing is pretending to be in another country where Netflix is cheaper, hola works 100%
    Maybe clear your history and cookies and try again

    Do it in incognito mode in Chrome.

    Had the same issue as you with expressvpn so used Hola instead prices are now showing as Turkish lira.

    Perhaps Netflix have realised people are using this method so the major VPN providers don't work while hola works because it uses people's own devices for its network?

    Netflix know exactly what’s going on
    They are constantly working to stop VPN’s
    Not many work for us content for example and when they do it’s only a matter of time before they are shut down
    Ive only found one that works without getting shutdown

    Turkish Lira is slowing starting to recover it seems, today on Revolut 39.99 equates to €6.23 still great value thou.

    Stock up on Revolut card while the rate is good.

    Ive never had more than 1 currency(euro)on my account. If I transfer some of my balance to Turkish Lira, will the Lira be used by default for the Netflix payments?

    yes exactly. It's a clever system they use actually.

    so if you have dollars there and you buy something on the US site, it takes from the US account.

    Great, thanks for that. Just bought 400 Lira to keep me covered for a few months.

    Dont bank on €6.20 a month going forward, its been rising month on month over last few months, buying up turkish lira on revolut seems to be the way to go alright.

    Just a quick point, when Netflix launches on sky q next month, it suggest that you will to merge your netflix account with your sky box sets account and this will cost €16 a month and will be on the sky bill, I presume this turkisk workaround is then out the window for anyone that wants to avail of that?

    Id imagine so as Sky will be billing you for both, has it been confirmed what package they will be giving you for the extra €8 per month?

    Im currently signed up through Mexico - if i change again will i lose where i am in series and stuff i have marked on my list?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,486 ✭✭✭Mountjoy Mugger


    I've been trying a variety of VPNs and can't get Turkey to play ball. Argentina was not a issue, but Turkey is extremely problematic.
    I previously had Mexico, and tried ExptressVPN, Hola, NordVpn and Tunnel Bear to name but four.


  • Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 9,030 Mod ✭✭✭✭Aquos76


    I find Speedify excellent and I’ve set a few people up on Netflix Turkey using that VPN

    Not if you leave your cancel you Mexico account and wait till it expires, then resign up with Turkey one, you just won’t get the free month is all

    sorry to derail the thread a bit but I signed up with getflix (lifetime vpn offer) after seeing it on here. i've used the mexico netflix to restart my account at the cheaper price. most of the time it works fine but on occasion i get the "this site can't be reached" error and when I do a diagnostics it says my connection is fine and the problem is with netflix. i can get into nearly all other websites fine but ones like amazon and sky also come up with the same error. i'm pretty sure its to do with the vpn but not sure what is happening exactly! it seems to rectify itself after a while but i'm wondering does anyone know what is going on with it?!
    thanks

    Perfect just tried this free VPN and works a charm! Now I just have to wait until end of month to join back up at cheaper rate.. crazy that using my paid VPN nord won’t work


  • Registered Users Posts: 259 ✭✭lazyman


    I hope that I am not the only person who loves the sound of this idea hasn't a clue about what to do.
    What is revolit, hola, vpn???
    Can someone outline what to do step by step in the simplest of terms for me please? I currently pay 8.99 a month for Netflix.
    Sorry now but I'm not great with IT, thanks.

    Can you only buy Turkish Lira on Revolut via bank transfer?

    Top up Revolut and then exchange the currency to whatever you want when the rate suits

    And I'm guessing that balance remains untouched until a site requests a payment in Lira?

    So I successfully used Speedify to login to Netflix using turkey VPN
    but when I go to pay using Revoult card details I get this message;
    "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later."
    tried again with new virtual card same story
    No idea what I'm doing wrong?

    I did it only last night. Worked for me using a revolut card.
